Apps accessing personal data without user control on iPhone

Daily, or every couple of days; I review my safety check in Settings, under privacy and there are many of my apps reviewing and giving out information about me, hundreds of times and I can’t even stop it by disengaging the apps from having the right to different parts of access I am suppose to have control over! It scares me because Apple says they may be saving content about me for something? And, I was informed by Experian that my info is on the dark web!

It wouldn't surprise me if pretty much everybody has information on the dark web. Complete privacy is a bygone thing unless you are living in a cabin in the middle of nowhere with no connection to the outside and never go out anywhere.


Safety is not the same as privacy.
